Cbt Vs Schizophrenic Theory
The results of the study were that those who used CBT had more reduction in their Schizophrenic symptoms than the BF intervention. This may be due to a variety of influential factors. For example, the “therapists” (nurses) may have been more experienced in their field of nursing than BF; however, they both received training prior to the study. There is also a lack of scientific research showing that BF is more effective in treating Schizophrenic patients. More research is needed in order to prove this point.

Research aids in the development of hypotheses and conducting experiments that test a hypothesis. Testing a hypothesis and replicating an experiment can prove the validity of effective treatment for Schizophrenic symptoms.
The third and final peer-reviewed journal article that I examined was an article entitled Cognitive Behavior Therapy for People with Schizophrenia. The goal of the article was to inform readers about the recent research of CBT and its link to Schizophrenia. It also discussed how CBT can be used in the present to treat Schizophrenia. There are some researchers that are skeptical of this particular therapy style and wonder if CBT is truly successful in patient recovery. It is essential to keep in mind that individual patient differences do play a role in the effectiveness of
